<h3>How to Submit New Icons</h3>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Download the <a href="assets/img/icon-flag.pdf">icon-flag.pdf template</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Open the PDF in Adobe Illustrator. You'll notice the file has dimensions of 60x56. This is exactly 4x the
|
|
max icon size of 15 wide by 14 tall. The template is an example of the flag icon to use as a guide.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Design your icon. In order to make it into the set, your icon must look pixel perfect. The easiest way to do
|
|
this is to make sure your line widths in the template are some multiple of 4px. Diagonals are rough, too.
|
|
Don't split pixels right down the middle, as they blur more when rendering. Zoom out to 25% to get a good idea
|
|
of how it will render in the font.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Submit your icon. Drop me an email at <a href="mailto:dave@davegandy.com">dave@davegandy.com</a>. Make sure to
|
|
use the subject <code>[Font Awesome] [Icon Contribution] icon-name</code> and attach your PDF file. If your
|
|
icon makes it into Font Awesome (I'm keeping a very tight reign on quality), I'll ask what contact info you'd
|
|
like to use for attribution.
